The restoration of Edoardo De Albertis' Winged Victory - Gildings

There is still a considerable amount of gilding on the surface of the sculpture

Cleaning highlights the considerable amount of gold leaf gilding still present on the surface of the bronze Winged Victory, executed by Edoardo De Albertis of Genoa (1874-1950). Behind the Victory stands a bronze pinnacle, executed by Gaetano Vannicola (1859-1923), fitted with a base decorated with festoons and culminating in an eagle.
